Fourth of July and such

We've just been totally enjoying the warm weather. We love to go to Grandma D's and swim in her little pool and play in the back yard. The long fourth of July weekend was a little draining but a lot of fun. We enjoyed the stadium of fire's fireworks from the lawn on BYU campus (go utes). Jude was in such a cute mood until he crashed in his stroller. We aren't sure what woke him up the loud fireworks or Daddy running into the stroller almost knocking it over. :) Then he just stared at the fireworks and seemed so curious. Then we enjoyed a nice Sunday dinner with the Duncan's to wish Matt and Bine farewell on their big move to England, then we jetted over to my mom's to say goodbye to Austin before he goes to Qatar. So many goodbyes. It's really sad. We love all of them and will miss them like crazy! Then Monday we went to the parade Thanks to Marc for camping out and not taking any bull from miss queen BYU minivan lady. Jude was really cute and watched the whole parade. And he was quite the scene on his little bike chillin with his shirt off after getting so hot. It was darling! Everyone we passed went crazy over him. My favorite stranger comment was some kid saying "What a stud" and he totally was. We also made time for our weekend hikes and outings. Here are all the pics to prove what a great big fat fun weekend we had. As always thanks for checkin in. Oh I almost forgot to mention that Jude is getting his top teeth in and it has almost caused me to lose my religion several times. Ha Ha!! He's been a little bit fussy to say the least. And I have started going back to work one day a week. I thought it was going to kill us both for me to leave Jude but we both survived and everything was just fine. Thanks for watching Cath and DeeWee!
